NASA is denying the claim that hackers infiltrated its systems, or managed to change the flight path of one of its drones.
“Control of our Global Hawk aircraft was not compromised,” NASA spokesman Allard Beutel said in a statement. “NASA has no evidence to indicate the alleged hacked data are anything other than already publicly available data. NASA takes cybersecurity very seriously and will continue to fully investigate all of these allegations.”
